    1971 Boss 302

    How did the BOSS 302 compare to the 351 in HP and Torque? Its probally better they went with the 351 considering the bigger body style they put them in. I think the BOSS 351 was the fastest production Mustang ever made? I could be wrong but the BOSS 351 outran even the 429SCJ in the 1/4mile...

    1971 Boss 302

    Anyone see the Classic Mustang Magazine I believe it was. They had a promotional photo of the BOSS 302 for 1971, I think they said they made one before they decided to go with the 351. They were so close to making it the magazine said that Ford catalogs even had the parts numbers for the BOSS...

    Why did Ford build 2 different 351 engines?

    Back before 1974 it seems Mustangs had so many more options then today, you had a big choice of engines: 429's, 351'sC, HO, CJ, 4bbl, 2bbl, 302's, I6's, 390's, 428's, 289's...Sometimes 5 or 6 a year to choose from. 4 different trannies, whole bunch of rear end ratio's. Now you have a choice of...

    Why did Ford build 2 different 351 engines?

    Is the stock crank and piston rods on a Cleveland strong? Im building a 351c 4bbl out of my 2bbl engines and was wondering if the stock piston rods and crank can handle 400HP or so? Is the oil problem that bad? I heard some say yes and some say no. Is it an easy fix? Im going to be...

    Why did Ford build 2 different 351 engines?

    I think the Windsor's older then the Cleveland? Just wondering why Ford would build 2 completely different 351 engines? Were they meant for different purposes? Thanks, Jim

    Interior resto time

    I used plastic paint on my center console and other smaller trim peices seemed to work good. I was wondering if anyone knows how to fill in the chips and scrapes that happen to the plastic over the years, it makes it looks like crap but im not sure how to even them out or fill them in. Jim

    73 Bumper supports?

    Some place sell's fiberglass front bumpers for the 1973's, I lost the website and have been trying to find it ever since, it saves ALOT of weight, something like 75-100lbs. And it was fairly cheap too like under 120 I believe. Jim

    Lobe seperation?

    Almost forgot, it does have power brakes/front disc brakes. I also has A/C but it doesn't work so I took the compressor and condensor and dryer out to take off a few lbs. So my main concern is keeping my power brakes working good. How large cam wise can you go before your power brakes start...

    Lobe seperation?

    Thanks for the replies. So if you wanted a FAST street car that sounded mean and could run with the best of them at the track you would go 110ish? The setup I will be running is 4bbl quench heads, stock piston rods and crank, flat top pistons, not sure on intake, probally a 750DP carb, FMX...
